Adjusting Carburetor for Cut‐
ting at Temperatures Below –
10°C
The engine will not accelerate properly if the
chainsaw is used at temperatures below –10°C.
The carburetor can be adjusted to obtain normal
engine acceleration in such conditions.
► Start the engine and disengage the chain
brake.
► Warm up the engine by opening and closing
the throttle for about 1 minute.
NOTICE
■ Engine power may drop noticeably when the
chainsaw is subsequently used at tempera‐
tures above –10°C.
► Carry out the standard setting.
► Rotate the low speed screw (L) a quarter
turn counterclockwise.
► If the saw chain runs continuously or the
engine stops: Adjust idle speed.

Adjusting Oil Feed Rate
The chainsaw has an adjustable oil pump.

1
The oil feed rate is suitable for most applications
when the oil pump adjusting screw (1) is in posi‐
tion E (Ematic).
The oil pump feed rate can be adjusted to suit
different bar lengths, wood species and working
techniques. The range of adjustment of the oil
pump adjusting screw (1) is limited by a stop (2).
The stop (2) can be depressed in order to further
increase the oil feed rate.

NOTICE
■ The oil tank will be drained at a faster rate if
the oil pump adjusting screw (1) is in the 'A'
segment. The point where the saw chain is no
longer being lubricated properly will be
reached sooner.
► Fill the oil tank to maximum.
► Move the oil pump adjusting screw away
from the 'A' segment when the increased oil
flow rate is no longer required.
► Turn the oil pump adjusting screw (1) clock‐
wise.
To reduce oil feed rate
